A Couple Of New Pipes

I am hanging out in Carlisle, PA this weekend waiting to pick up at the Army depot in Chambersburg, PA Monday morning.

I bobtailed down to Boswell's pipe shop in Chambersburg this morning. Boswell is a world famous maker of hand carved pipes and I have wanted to visit there for a long time.

I was impressed with how friendly the staff was and wound up spending a good deal of time there looking over their pipes and tasting their tobacco blends.

I wound up buying two pipes and getting two ounces (one ounce free with each pipe purchase) of their North Woods blend, which is a tasty English blend that very much resembles Frog Morton.

 The next time you are in Carlisle, PA or Chambersburg on a Tuesday night bring your knitting and come down to the Walker Rd exit to the Panera's on Norland Ave.  There is an S&B there on Tuesday night from 7pm till 9 pm we would love to have you join us.

Thanks, Cancuun. To be honest I haven't done any knitting for over a year now. I sort of lost interest in it after my mother passed away, and the arthritis in my fingers started bothering me more.
